Yeah, they took Jaffa, right?

And this happened partially, like, a big part of this is King Abdullah of Jordan being kind of passive about a lot of this stuff.

Like, there's like a story about like an envoy that went to Jordan.

Like, like, okay, so something that happened during the Nakhpa was that, um, just various

Palestinian, like, uh, leaders in military commandos and, and high ranking military leaders

and stuff like that would, uh, they'd go on like these missions.

Like, they'd leave to go try to curry fucking support from the neighboring Arab

states.

One of them goes to the King Abdullah of Jordan and he's about to ask him for support, but there's

like an intermediary who coves in between them, and he's, he's

mobbed up by the British still. And so he goes like, oh, like, I can't remember the language

in the book. It's like, this bloke is bleeding and lie. And he says it all Britishly, because he's

like a British, you know, like he works for the British and stuff.

And he just says like, no, no, there's nothing going on in Israel right now. And he stops King Abdullah from potentially helping out, although whether he would have or not, that's, you know, maybe even a moot point.

Eventually other Arab states start to send in armies at the massive behest of their

populations.

Did I say that right?

It's because of their population.

It's not in spite of them.

I don't know if I use the word.

That's right.

So there's like, yeah, there's like these weird puppet governments.
